Sweden grants permission for burning of Torah and Bible outside Israeli embassy in Stockholm, sparking condemnation from Tel Aviv and Jewish organisations
The permit was granted in line with free speech protections, but authorities later said they had opened an investigation over"agitation against an ethnic group", noting that the extremist had burnt pages from the Islamic holy book very close to the mosque.
Sweden' s government also condemned the incident as"Islamophobic", while noting that the country had a"constitutionally protected right to freedom of assembly, expression and demonstration". After the vote, Ambassador Khalil Hashmi of Pakistan insisted the measure"does not seek to curtail the right to free speech," but tries to strike a"prudent balance" between it and"special duties and responsibilities."
